[Evidence Based Education @EvidenceInEdu]

School improvement is complex. Professional learning shouldn’t add to that complexity, it should bring clarity.

But too often, even the most well-intentioned professional learning can leave teachers asking:

“Where do I even start?”
“How will I know it’s working?”
“What’s the best focus for me?”

That uncertainty costs time and impact.

That's why we made a major update to the Great Teaching Toolkit learning platform to include:

🗣️ 360° feedback: student, self-reflection and peer surveys, all providing feedback aligned to the Model for Great Teaching

✍️ Recommended techniques based on your chosen goal.

🏫 Step-by-step guides to implementation.

📝 Guides for adapting techniques to develop adaptive expertise.

Schemas are a bit like mental filing systems 🗂️

The stronger and more connected they become, the easier it is to organise and retrieve knowledge later on.
